FoldSum is a free Chrome extension that helps you quickly summarize and translate text without leaving your browser.
How FoldSum works
After installing the extension, open a tab where you’re already signed in to ChatGPT or Poe. On any webpage, select the text you want, then click “Summarize.” FoldSum sends the request to the open chat and returns a condensed version of the selected content.
Key features
- Summarize selected text on any webpage
- Translate while summarizing for multilingual workflows
- Insert the result back into the page to reduce tab switching and copy/paste
- Uses the existing web versions of ChatGPT or Poe (no tokens or API keys)
Typical use cases
- TL;DR for articles, research papers, and long reports
- Quick summaries of news and documentation
- Fast translation of excerpts while reading online
